MORSE CODE
33 minutes
In the eccentric community of modern-day East Nashville, Simon Morse, a talented but flawed thirty-something indie folk singer finds himself at a crossroads as he struggles to strike a balance between family and career.
It's Portlandia… meets This Is Us… with the vinyl scratch of High Fidelity.
Authentic, grounded, quirky, and at times darkly funny, Morse Code is about a working-class musician — an archetype fast-disappearing from America’s Spotify-manicured landscape — about a guy trying to hold on to his livelihood, to stay true to himself and his quiet calling in a winner-take-all world.
Simon desperately wants to be both a good father and a successful artist. For the last ten years, he’s scraped by with a heavy tour schedule of small clubs, house concerts, and the occasional festival. Those years on the road have all but alienated him from his wife and daughter and left him seriously questioning whether it was worth it. Will Simon let his dream die to save his family?
